Are these strumming patterns correct?

[Intro]
C  Dm  G  C  Em  F  G
 
[VERSE 1]
 
 C                                      A
  I've lost my cool I'm not sure how to act.
 F                                      G
Not even sure how I can keep my pride intact.
 Am                    C
Well  I don't know if this is it but can't you see 
 D      F                                           G
no  I'm not falling for you so please have mercy on me.
 
 
[CHORUS]
                     C        A
'Cause it's not romantic I swear 
    F               G
I'm not gasping for air.
C                 Am
I want you to be here 
 F               G
but please don't come near.
        Am                             C        D
'Cause even though I'm pretty sure my head's exploding 
 F            G
I'm not ready for hand holding.
 C             A
It's not love I swear 
    F         G
It might be closer to despair.
 
C  Em  F  G  C  Em  F  G
 
[VERSE 2]
 
C                                        A
No  I don't want you to teach me how to dance.
          F                                G
Get your heart away from me you'll put me into a trance 
    Am                        C            D
and even though I think about you day and night 
         F                                            G
I'm not sure if this whole love thing sounds quite right.

but please don't come near.

'Cause even though I'm pretty sure my head's exploding 
F              G
I'm not ready for hand holding.
C             A
It's not love I swear 
    F         G          C
It might be closer to despair.

This is great! But is there an easier alternative to G#?

Great chord sheet!!! thanks so muchhhh

i play a instead of am in the chorus and it sounds really cute!! also when the chord changes from am to c, i like to bring it one fret down from am (so 1000) and it sounds just like the song :D
